chin rest
A chin rest is a small, detachable piece attached to the body of a string instrument such as a violin or viola, providing comfort and support for the player. It is placed on the instrument so the player can hold it steady with their chin and left shoulder while playing, freeing up their hands to manipulate the strings and bow. The chin rest is usually made of wood or plastic and can be adjusted to fit the player's anatomy and playing style.
